The place to apply for the Senior Disciple Assessment was an independent continent, known as the Assessment Continent.
There were layers of checkpoints on the Assessment Continent, and as long as one passed, he or she would be called a Senior Disciple. From then on, he or she would enjoy extraordinary treatment, and even the Elders would have to give him or her face.
However, because many disciples knew their own limits, they wouldn't come unless they were absolutely confident in their abilities.
Therefore, the Assessment Continent was usually very quiet. It could be said that every month, only a dozen or so people would come here to participate in the assessment.
However, most of the disciples who dared to come here would be able to pass the assessment, because most of them had reached the Asura Fighting Soul level, which was why they dared to challenge the Assessment Continent.
However, today was special. Compared to the peaceful days in the past, it was much more lively today.
This was a common phenomenon. Every time the competition for the slots to enter the Main Palace was approaching, such a phenomenon would occur.
Not to mention the fact that many hidden disciples would come out at this time.
Many busybodies also came to watch. They wanted to see who among the intermediate disciples would be able to pass the Senior Disciple Assessment.
After all, no matter how great one's reputation was, only true strength could measure one's true ability.
The Senior Disciple Assessment was the best standard to measure one's strength.
"Look, isn't that Xing Jue?"
"Why is he here? I don't think he's here to see who can pass the assessment, right?"
"Definitely not. This guy is ambitious. I think he's here to participate in the Senior Disciple Assessment and fight for a spot in the Main Palace."
"That can't be? Even if he's strong and can dominate the intermediate disciples, isn't it too difficult for him to compete with thousands of Senior Disciples for the 100 spots? "
The moment Xing Jue landed on the Floating Continent, he instantly attracted the attention of many people. Whether they knew Xing Jue or not, they all turned to look at Xing Jue.
Ever since Xing Jue entered the Sacred Alliance, he had not had a day of peace. First, he was on the brink of death. Then, he defeated the intermediate disciples and humiliated the Dao Realm.
Now, he was walking together with the most beautiful woman in the mansion, Li Xiaohan. He had long become the focus of countless people's discussion. He was truly a famous person.
Especially among the intermediate and beginner disciples, many of them felt that Xing Jue was like a legend. Other than those who revered him, many of them had even started to worship Xing Jue.
"He is Xing Jue?"
Compared to the discussion among the disciples, the principal elder of this continent looked at Xing Jue with a complicated gaze.
Vaguely, they already knew that Xing Jue was under the protection of the Punishment Lord, and his clan was a mystery. The experienced and far-sighted elders also had some scruples about Xing Jue.
After all, if Xing Jue really came from the eastern part of the Holy Region and was a member of one of the eight ancient clans, they couldn't afford to offend him even though they were elders of the Holy Region Alliance.
"There is indeed a mysterious aura to it. I wonder what kind of profoundness it contains."
Xing Jue completely ignored the gazes of the crowd. He was solemnly sizing up the huge square in the center of the continent.
The square was like a great formation, surrounded by light and majestic aura.
The square was like an entrance that led straight to the ground.
There were countless people gathered outside the square. There were men and women in the sky and on the ground.
Needless to say, the location of the test was right below the square.
"Elder, I would like to participate in the test of the high-rank disciples. May I know what the requirements are?"
Under countless gazes, Xing Jue came to the floating palace above the square and asked for instructions from a few of the elders here.
"There are no requirements. If you are qualified, you can participate in the test."
"Take this token. After the person in front of you takes the test, you can enter."
The elders had calm expressions. One of them handed a wooden token to Xing Jue.
The wooden token was made of a special material, but what attracted Xing Jue's attention was the number eight engraved on it.
The eighth place. This meant that today, there were already eight people in front of Xing Jue who had received this token.
Looking over the crowd, there were actually four low-rank Asura Battle Spirits and two high-rank Asura Battle Spirits with powerful auras. They all held the same token as Xing Jue.
Xing Jue had never seen these people before. They were older, and one of them already had a head full of white hair.
It was obvious that they were people who lived in seclusion and cultivated. They only wanted to become a high-rank disciple today and compete for that spot.
Buzz!
At this time, the center of the square brightened. Golden light soared into the sky and a figure slowly floated out from the light.
As soon as this person appeared, cheers erupted from the crowd. Even the principal elders of the floating palace stroked their snow-white beards and nodded with a faint smile.
Regardless of the man's appearance, just the place where he appeared was the focus of everyone's attention.
There were three gates in the square: the blue gate, the red gate, and the golden gate. The blue gate was the entrance, while the red and golden gates were the exits.
However, the red gate was different from the golden gate. Coming out of the red gate meant failure, while coming out of the golden gate meant passing.
This person flew out of the golden gate, which showed that he had successfully passed the test and already had the qualifications to become a high-rank disciple.
"It's him?"
However, when Xing Jue saw the man's face, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
This was because he knew that person. He was one of the geniuses of the Dao Clan who had a great feud with him. He was in the Dao Realm.
"He broke through so quickly? It seems that the Dao Clan is really willing to spend money. "Seeing such a scene, although Xing Jue was a little surprised, he only smiled.
His current Dao Realm was no longer a high-rank Asura Battle Spirit. He was actually a low-rank Asura Battle Spirit.
However, according to Xing Jue's previous observation, if he wanted to break through to the Dao Realm, he would have a chance within three years, but it would definitely not be now.
This meant that the Dao Clan had most likely spent a lot of money on him to help him break through in one go so that he could participate in the competition for the spot.
When Dao Realm appeared, countless people came forward to flatter him, especially the people from the Dao Clan, who were beaming with joy.
However, with some people's advice, Dao Realm also quickly noticed Xing Jue, and a cold look flashed in his eyes.
"Most of the disciples of the Sanctuary Alliance know their limits, but there are always some who don't and like to do risky things."
"I really don't know if it's good to say that this kind of person has the spirit of adventure or is too ignorant. In short, the existence of this kind of person is a stain on the Sanctuary Alliance."
Dao Realm looked at the token in Xing Jue's hand and mocked him. There was a hidden meaning in his words, and the surrounding dogs from the Dao Clan also laughed.
However, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the person he was talking about was Xing Jue, and he was deliberately mocking Xing Jue.
On the surface, Xing Jue's strength was that of a beginner-level Asura Battle Spirit. However, to pass the high-level disciple test, he needed at least an Asura Battle Spirit.
If a high-level Asura Battle Spirit came to participate, there would still be a glimmer of hope. However, if a beginner-level Asura Battle Spirit like Xing Jue came to participate, it would be easy for people to think that he was ignorant.
However, those who knew Xing Jue knew that Xing Jue was extraordinary. Putting aside the fact that he was only an Asura Martial God when he first came to the Sanctuary Alliance, he had broken through to the Asura Battle Spirit at a terrifying cultivation speed in just a few months.
It should be known that when Xing Jue was still a high-level Asura Martial God, he had beaten the crap out of a high-level Asura Battle Spirit Dao Realm cultivator.
Therefore, Xing Jue's true strength was a mystery in the eyes of many. It was impossible to judge his true strength from his strength on the surface.
"Oh, I was wondering who it was that was shouting. So it's my good-for-nothing grandson." Xing Jue sneered. He didn't even look Dao Realm in the eye.
"Fuck, who are you calling grandson?" Dao Realm was infuriated when he heard Xing Jue's words.
"Haha, interesting. There are countless people here, but you're the only one who answered me when I called you grandson. Looks like I have no choice but to admit that I'm calling you."
"But I'm also deeply surprised. Grandson, you're very self-aware. You knew I was calling you the moment I opened my mouth." Xing Jue laughed and then narrowed his eyes mockingly.
Xing Jue's words caused the surrounding crowd to burst into laughter. Previously, Xing Jue had seemed to be talking to himself, but now that Dao Realm had taken the initiative to step forward, it was equivalent to admitting that he was Xing Jue's grandson.
"Xing Jue, don't be so arrogant. I lost to you that day because I was careless. If you have the guts, let's compete again today."
The crowd's laughter made Dao Realm even more ashamed. His face was red as he shouted at Xing Jue, "If you lose, kneel and beg for mercy and call your opponent 'grandfather' a hundred times. Do you dare?"
He had long been unwilling to lose to Xing Jue. Although he was surprised that Xing Jue had broken through in such a short time, he had now entered the Asura Fighting Soul, a whole new level.
The Asura Fighting Soul was a level that was completely above the Asura Fighting Spirit. The power in his body had allowed Dao Realm to regain his original confidence. He had absolute confidence that he could defeat Xing Jue.
"Kneel and beg for mercy and call me grandfather? Can't you have some new tricks? Do you only know how to copy your grandfather's methods? "Xing Jue sneered. He looked at Dao Realm, who was gnashing his teeth, as if he was looking at a clown.
"Don't try to talk big. Do you dare or not? Just give me an answer. If you don't dare, then kneel and beg for mercy!" Dao Realm shouted.
"I dare. Why wouldn't I dare? Do you think I would be afraid of a loser like you? "
"However, since we are going to fight, let's use our real skills. I am no longer interested in you kneeling and begging for mercy and calling me grandfather. This time, I want your life."
Xing Jue's eyes suddenly turned cold. They were like two rays of cold light that pierced people's souls. Dao Realm was so frightened that his body trembled slightly and a chill surged in his heart.
"Want his life? What do you mean by that? "Before Dao Realm could speak, the surrounding people from the Dao Clan asked.
"If you want to fight with me, then come to the Life and Death Arena. If you don't dare, then call me grandfather a few more times. I can consider letting you go." Xing Jue sneered.
"You …" The moment Xing Jue said that, the surrounding people were even more shocked. Even the Dao Realm cultivators were shocked.
"What kind of divine being is this Punishment Execution? He actually dares to target the people of the Dao Clan. "
The elder in charge of the assessment land frowned and fell into deep thought as he watched the scene in silence.
A fight would be a battle of life and death. Furthermore, all the people he had made enemies here were from the Dao Clan. This made the elders feel that Xing Jue was deliberately making things difficult for the Dao Clan.
"Do you dare or not?" Xing Jue's voice was like thunder as he asked again.
"…"
Dao Realm was speechless as he looked at the confident and imposing Xing Jue.
He never imagined that he, who had been asking questions earlier, would be the one being asked questions in the blink of an eye.
He, who had been full of confidence, actually felt a little guilty at that moment. He suddenly felt that Xing Jue was a terrifying person.
He was so terrifying that even he, who was clearly stronger than him, felt afraid. Even if he were to be laughed at by the crowd, he did not dare to accept the challenge recklessly.
"Agree to it!"
However, just as Dao Realm was hesitating, a cold and familiar voice suddenly rang in his ears.
